What is DISCOUNT MERCHANT BANKCARD and why did they take money from my account?

What is DISCOUNT MERCHANT BANKCARD? And why did they take money out of my business checking account? The bank told me that it posted the EXACT same time as a transaction from Paypal, so it is likely related. Someone help!

Hello @Customer2001, 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear you've run into an unrecognized transaction. If you see the transaction on your PayPal account, you may want to see if the option to open an Unauthorized Dispute is available. If it is only on your bank or card history, we'd recommend reaching out to your financial company's support to see what options are available. 

Good luck!

Hi Jon, 

thank you for your reply. however, i did talk to my bank and they said it was posted the EXACT same time as a transaction from paypal. So they told me to check with paypal. I fgured i would try here first before i contact paypal directly. It is not on my paypal transactions, but i find it extremely odd that it came out at the EXACT same time as another paypal transaction. I have absolutely not authorized any transactions for this DISCOUNT MERCHANT BANKCARD and have no idea what that even is.
